Reeve, commander of Pickett's Division AS
ISOLATION, has received letter from Mrs.
Pickett, widow of the late Confederate Gen.
eral Geo. E. Pickett, In returning thanks
for the courtesies extended to her at the
recent Gettysburg reunion, she says on be-
half of herself and son {: "And not Only to
our brave bows, but to the gallant ex-soi'
diers and citizens of Pennsylvania are we
indebted for courtesies that can never be for
gotten. Words cannot convey our graft
tude, and time cannot efface the hallowed
memories of the events Of July I'd, Sd and
4th, 1887. Regal entertainment has its ex-
pression in lavish expenditures of money,
empty display of pomp and splendor; but
our entertainment was lavish expenditure
of soul-a display of chivslry and heartfelt
rivalry, wherein the men OF pennsylvania
We'd with our own cherished sons IN doing
honor to us, not for any merit OF our own,
but in memory of the brave, chivalric sol.
der and loving and devoted husband and
father, your own loved and loving command
ar. who has gone to his reward. Please con-
vey to all as far as possible, in manner most
congenial to yourself, the thanks we fail to
find words to express, being assured, how
ever that we will feel that the measure oil
our cup of 10y will be full and running over.
As q result of the reunion, the bltternesses
of the past are buried and the brave and
loyal hearts of both North and South are
firmly cemented in the bonds OF union I'M.
der the old stars and stripes the emblem oil
our fathers, in defense of which at home and
on foreign soil the sons Of the South nave
fought as yalisntly as under our loved and
cherished stars and bars, now laid away,
sacred only to memory

The GAZETTE is now the Oldest paper liz
the State. and with few exceptions the old
est in the country, and its usefulness has
been demonstrated and appreciated during
the EIGHTY.sEvEN YEARS Gifts existence. In
| its columns has always been found a mirror
of passing events, and the careful chroni-
cling of the history ofwhat is going on in the
world has ever been its aim II is always
welcomed in the household, while in the
counting room and workshop if has become
invaluable
The GAZETTE has better facilities foe OH.
tanning news than any paper outside of the
national capital. Situated as it IS so close,
to the great centre of news, it enjoys daily
the benefit of the Associated Press dis.
patches from every part ofthe world hence
its patrons can read from its columns in the
evening what has transpired that day in
every portion of our own domain as well as
from every part of the habitabIe globe.
Consequently it is an every day occurrence
for the GAZETTE to publish kilograms from
the various European capitals twelve and
fifteen hours earlier than the morning pa.
pers.
Another feature that serves to make the
GAZETTE great desideratum with mer
chants is its afternoon market reports from
New York. Baltimore, Chicago and other
centres
The local department furnishes full ana
complete history of everything that occurs
and near the city, and this feature will.
as ever, receive careful attention.
Correspondence from Washington, Rich
mond and every section of thoState, is pub
lished regularly, and all events of interest
occurring within the bounds of the Com
monwealth are to be found in the columns
of the GAZETTE
The GAzErTE's circulation is steadily in
oreasing, especially among people who con-
suit its advertising columns before purchas-
ing. That this is self-evident may be infer
red from the fact that large country edi-
as large as the daily-is sent
all over this section OF country three tines
a week, and is read by thousands most OF
whom send here or to contiguous cities to
make purchases. The advantages of ad-
in the GAZETTE are, therefore, ap-
parent.

which there is no legitimate use,
and most of which is composed of
such material that instead of being
a guarantee for the maintenance of
law and public order, it is standing
menace to the lives and liberties of
our people? Is it not well known
that within the last two weeks,
artillery, machine guns and ammu-
milton in large quantities have been
privately conveyed into the Palace
enclosure at dead Of night, and that
the king has surrounded himself
with an arrangement of guards,
passwords and countersigns, to say
nothing of an extensive spy system,
which would be quite appropriate
for city in state of siege, or an
army in the presence of an enemy?

any sane man, unless to improve
their capacity for defensive pur-
poses, and provide iron clad en-
brasurcs on either side of each
gate, from which artillery and small
arms can rake the approaches in
every direction!
Americans by birth or blood,
domiciled in the Hawaiian Kingdom,
identified with its interests and
seeking its welfare, should seriously
consider the events of the last five
years, the present condition of af.

consummation and in the light OF
their own country's history and the
events which gave their nation birth

REAL ESTATE.

Probably at the present time there
is q condition of the local real estate
market which has never been dupli-
Gated in the history of this country.
Values have fallen immensely, and
quite number Of properties which
a few years ago cost from three to
five thousand dollars, have recently
been sold for less than half the cost,
with improvements thrown in. But
the particular feature which has
probably never been paralleled, is
the amount of real estate now in the
market for which there are no buyers
at any price whatever. One real
estate agent alone has had property
in various parts of the town, and of
various sizes, advertised for sale
during the past month or two, and
moderately estimated to be worth,
in the aggregate, from forty to fifty
thousand dollars, for which he can
find purchasers at no price. Owners
are seized with a desire to sell,
but nobody appears possessed of a
desire to buy. Undoubtedly, this
condition of the real estate market
is due, in measure, to the state OF
public feeling with regard to the
public affairs of the country, and
the want of confidence in govern
mental arrangements. A restora-
ton of confidence, would improve
matters in this direction.
